    Update, that road was still seasonally closed, looks like it will be pretty awesome up there though. Ended up camping up another canyon to the left of where this pic was taken. Badass fishing ensued.

    FJ looks great, can't wait to see in person. What did you do to the rear control arm mounts for beefing them up? Just the frame side, or axle too?

    Very cool. I just made a set of upper links for my truck, and that metal is pretty thin there, just like the lowers. Looks like those were kinda jacked up already though, so a repair as well?

    yea between poor design and lack of maintenance, the holes began to oblong creating a nasty lunk and axle shifting...

    I would cut them off completely and build jberry mounts. Those things look like sheet metal.

    1/4" plate, both sides wrapped up the frame. And slider tied into for good measure. :cool:

    Just because you're paranoid. That doesn't mean they're not after you.
